Families who have been selected will be placed on the Housing Choice Voucher (HCV) lottery waiting list in an order determined by a randomized selection process and assigned a position. Applicants are called from the waiting list based on their position and notified to proceed with their online orientation and briefing process.
It is the responsibility of the applicants to keep their contact information updated with HASLC. Failure to do so could result in cancellation from the Housing Choice Voucher (HCV) lottery waiting list. If an applicant needs to updated their mailing address, phone number or email address please log into your account to make theses changes only.
